Low volatility
Good retention in film and fiber processing.
UV-327 Benzotriazole UV Absorber Supplier
SUNSORB® 327 (UV-327) is a low-volatility chlorinated benzotriazole UV absorber used in polyolefin film, fiber and other plastics. UV-327 is listed as a Substance of Very High Concern under EU REACH, so check your market before ordering.

Présentation du produit
UV-327 (2,4-di-tert-butyl-6-(5-chloro-2H-benzotriazol-2-yl)phénol) has low volatility and good compatibility in polyolefins. Because of its REACH status, many EU buyers have moved to alternatives such as UV-326, 329 ou 234. Outside the EU it remains in use; we confirm the rules for your destination before quoting.
Typical specification. Every shipment is supplied with a batch COA; the limits that apply to your order are confirmed in the quotation and contract.
Key Benefits
Polyolefin compatibility
Used in PP and PE film and fiber.
Alternatives available
If 327 is restricted in your market we can propose and supply a replacement.

Technique & Buying Information
UV Absorber UV-327 Buyer Guide
Define the exposure
Indoor light behind glass, outdoor temperate climate and desert or tropical exposure need very different packages. Note the target service life and the weathering test you use (xenon or QUV, heures, ΔE or gloss retention).
Match absorber to process and thickness
A UV absorber works by filtering, so it needs enough path length: thick parts need less, thin films and fibers need more and need a low-volatility grade. Check the absorber survives your processing temperature.
Combine with a HALS
For outdoor use the standard approach is UV absorber plus HALS. Send your current package and pigment system and we suggest a starting combination for the trial.
Check regulations before you buy
Some benzotriazoles are restricted in the EU and other markets. Tell us the destination and end use, and we confirm the REACH and food-contact position of the grade before you order.

View product →UV Absorber UV-327 FAQ
Can I use UV-327 in products sold in the EU?
UV-327 is a REACH SVHC and subject to authorisation, so EU use is heavily restricted. Tell us your market and we confirm the position and suggest an alternative if needed.
What can replace UV-327?
UV-326 is the closest in performance in polyolefins; 329 et 234 are alternatives depending on polymer and temperature. A weathering re-test is needed.
What dosage is typical?
0.1–0.5% with a HALS for outdoor use.
Can I get a sample before ordering?
Oui. Tell us the polymer, the test you plan to run and the quantity you need. Samples ship with a COA so you can compare the lot against your current material.
What if a COA does not match our agreed specification?
Send us the agreed specification and the COA showing the difference (parameter, unit and test method). We check it with the production batch record before you accept the material, and replace or re-test where the lot is out of specification.
